King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 363: Feeling like old friends at first sight with the princess

However, Yang Qingyin was wrong. Daiyu was by no means the good girl she imagined.

At the moment, Daiyu seems to be polite and solemn, because she suppressed her natural instincts in the palace.

In essence, Daiyu and Xiangyun are the same kind of people, and they have a stronger sense of fun than anyone else.

After a while, Zhu Yunsheng rushed to the palace. The queen took advantage of Daiyu's merits and gave Zhu Yunsheng some advice.

There is a word called "darkness under the lamp", which just describes the relationship between Yang Qingyin and her daughter.

In fact, Zhu Yunsheng was good enough, but the queen, who loved her daughter so much, only saw her daughter's shortcomings.

This also led to Zhu Yunsheng being very dissatisfied with Daiyu at the moment, but her mother's presence kept her from having an attack.

But as luck would have it, news came from Ningshou Palace that Concubine Zhen was unwell, so the Queen decided to go and have a look in person.

As a result, only Daiyu and Zhu Yunsheng were left in the main hall, and the queen specifically asked the latter to seek advice from the former.

"Isn't it just because you have read a few books that you think you are better than me in knowledge?" Zhu Yunsheng looked dissatisfied.

Daiyu understood why the princess was dissatisfied, so she quickly and humbly replied: "How dare you, my lord, the light of Yinghuo, compete with the bright moon!"

"That's not necessarily the case. My mother has praised you to the sky!"

Hearing this, Daiyu quickly replied: "That's because... the Queen loves the princess, so she only thinks that the princess is better. It's not too late for the servant to be envious!"

"To tell you the truth, princess, my daughter is not as good as the empress praised her, she is just trying to save her face!"

Sitting on a chair nearby and looking at Daiyu who looked respectful, Zhu Yunsheng asked calmly: "Really?"

"In terms of knowledge, I have only read a few books and can only recognize a few words!"

"In terms of appearance, the princess has the beauty of the country and the beauty of the heaven, but the court lady is nothing more than a mere mediocre..."

"Argument……"

"Okay, okay, stop talking, you are too modest!"

Seeing Daiyu still praising him, Zhu Yunsheng felt embarrassed.

Zhu Yunsheng actually recognized Daiyu's knowledge and appearance and compared her with himself.

If Daiyu devalued herself as worthless, it would be equivalent to saying that Zhu Yunsheng was nothing.

In fact, Daiyu was observing the princess's reaction from beginning to end, while constantly revising her speaking strategies.

Now she could see that the princess had a good heart, so she became bolder.

"Princess, I really envy you!"

"What do you envy me for?"

"You have a mother who loves you and cares about you. This is a blessing that no one can ask for. Just like the mother of your daughter...has passed away!" Daiyu spoke out of emotion, and her eyes got wet when she said this. .

The way Queen Cai taught Zhu Yunsheng just now made Daiyu so envious that she even recalled her own mother.

"Ah? You...don't be too sad!"

Seeing Daiyu crying, Zhu Yunsheng spoke to comfort her.

After a few words of comfort, Daiyu also knew that this was not the time to be playful, so she wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

It is worth mentioning that at this moment, she was no longer standing talking, but was pulled to sit next to her by Zhu Yunsheng.

"You are living in the Jia family, and you are still used to it now. No one in their family will bully you, right?"

Talking about the person who bullied her reminded Daiyu of Baoyu, the person who always made her angry.

Of course, she also knew not to talk nonsense right now, otherwise she might cause trouble for her grandmother and her family.

The two started talking like this. The more they talked, the better they got to know each other, and they realized that they were the same kind of people.

Daiyu was neither humble nor overbearing in front of Zhu Yunsheng, and the two were similar in age, which actually made Zhu Yunsheng feel that he had found a soulmate.

"You also like Su Shi? It just so happens that I also like Su Shi's poetry, especially his romantic works!" Zhu Yunsheng became more and more excited as she talked, and at this moment she completely opened up her chatterbox.

Daiyu Xiaoji nodded like she was pecking rice, and then said: "Su Zi's words of love for people, I think the best time for the water melody singer to be in the bright moon!"

"Especially the last sentence... I hope that we can live forever and share the beauty of the moon thousands of miles away. It really expresses the beauty of true love in the world!" Zhu Yunsheng also nodded and said: "Yes, yes, this sentence is related to Wang Bo's confidants in the sea, even in the world." If we are neighbors, we have different approaches but the same effect!"

Never before has Zhu Yunsheng found talking about poetry so interesting.

Although she and Baochai talked about it on weekdays, it felt a little different after all. It was more of a study reminder than a criticism and discussion between friends.

Of course, the biggest reason for this is that she and Baochai are not of the same age.

Xiangyun is similar in age, but he is not very interested in poetry. Instead, he likes to tease her into all kinds of fun, and he is a very qualified playmate.

The two of them talked more and more intimately, and they didn't even notice the queen coming back. Yang Qingyin just looked at them and talked like this for several minutes.

She came back "quietly" just to see how the two children were chatting, but now the result was beyond her expectation.

Yang Qingyin was particularly happy to hear that they were talking happily, and their words were filled with poetry and songs, and they kept talking about anecdotes about famous people from ancient times to the present.

"uh-huh!"

Hearing the sound, the chat between the two people in the hall stopped abruptly, and then they both stood up and saluted.

"No gifts, no gifts!" Yang Qingyin smiled.

"You two seem to be having a great time chatting!"

I saw Zhu Yunsheng holding the hand of my good sister and saying happily: "Not only did we have a great conversation, it was almost as if we had met so late!"

"Ok!"

"In that case, then go back and have a good chat, but you won't be able to let go here!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunsheng pulled Daiyu out and was about to go out, but the latter returned to her previous state of observing etiquette. She first saluted the queen and then left with Zhu Yunsheng.

Pulling Daiyu out of the hall, Zhu Yunsheng said with great pride: "From now on, we will be good sisters. If anyone bullies you, just tell me and I will ask my thirteenth brother to help you beat him up!"

"Why, you don't believe it?"

"Princess, how dare I not believe that the Thirteenth Master is so powerful... No one in the world knows how powerful he is!"

What happened to Jia Zhen a few days ago has cast a huge shadow on Rongguo Mansion. How could Daiyu not know about it.

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet the other sisters!"

Pulling Daiyu together, they rushed to the east hall. Baochai and others greeted them before they even entered.

"Girl Lin, I haven't seen you for a few days...how are you always?"

After finally meeting Baochai, Daiyu became more and more relaxed and immediately replied: "Sister Baochai is thinking about me, how can I be wrong?"

At this time, Xiangyun interrupted: "Princess, do you want to stay with Sister Lin for one night today?"

Zhu Yunsheng didn't mean it at first, but after hearing Xiang Yun's words, she suddenly felt it was necessary.

"Of course, we can just talk. This Miss Lin and I...we hit it off right away!" Zhu Yunsheng agreed immediately.

Spending the night in a strange environment, Daiyu instinctively wanted to refuse.

But now that Zhu Yunsheng has spoken, Daiyu can't refuse even if she doesn't like it.

"Come on, let's go in and talk!"

Zhu Yunsheng walked in first, followed by several others.

Daiyu followed Baochai into the hall. Just as she was looking around, she heard Baochai whisper in her ear: "Girl Lin, there is someone who wants to see you!"

"Who wants to see me?"

Baochai didn't say it clearly, but said to himself: "He made a special trip just now, but he left again because of something. It's really unlucky!"

"He? Sister Bao, I know who you are talking about!"

After a slight smile, Daiyu continued: "You are also called this in the palace. It seems that the relationship between you two is better than I thought!"

Baochai had heard similar words so many times that she was completely immune to them at this moment.
